Chapter 65
"Thank you, old secretary, for your understanding." Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, with a calm expression on his face, and said calmly.

The old secretary stopped his long smile, and looked Xiao Yi up and down again.Then, he opened his mouth and said slowly: "It is indeed a good seedling. I really like it when I look at it. However, if you don't become an official in politics, then I, an old man like me, may not be able to help you much."

Feeling the kindness of the old secretary Zhang Weimin, Xiao Yi felt warm in his heart, and smiled humbly: "It's okay, I will walk my own path well alone."

When the old secretary saw Xiao Yi say this, his face suddenly became proud and full of confidence.Suddenly, he was taken aback for a moment, as if he saw the high-spirited self back then.

After pondering for a while, the old secretary Zhang Weimin suddenly lifted a chess set on the table, and said loudly to Xiao Yi: "This thing should know how to do it. Come, play a game with me, an old man. It's been a long time People, I am willing to accompany the old man to the next round."

"Respect is worse than obedience."

Xiao Yi smiled, then sat face to face with the old secretary.

Xiao Yi often played chess with his unscrupulous master on the mountain.Therefore, when the old secretary took out the chess, Xiao Yi felt very kind.

After the red and black chess pieces were placed, Xiao Yi and the old secretary began to kill all directions on the chessboard, mobilizing troops and horses, creating a lively scene.

In the room, a slightly dim light shone on the two of them.Both faces slowly became serious.On the chessboard, the chess piece landed heavily, making a crackling sound.

A game of chess kills chickens and dogs.In the end, the old secretary finally sighed, and sighed slowly: "It seems that I am powerless this time. The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead, and we are getting old when we get old."

"The old secretary admitted it." Xiao Yi said calmly, still looking unhappy.

"Come again." The old secretary said loudly with a look of fighting intent on his face.

Xiao Yi spread out his hands, and responded very simply: "Okay."

All of a sudden, a chess flag was heard from the room falling on the chessboard again, making a loud bang.

Outside, the night is getting darker.Zhao Xing copied some appetizers and stood at the door of the old secretary's study.Hearing the sound of the flag falling on the chessboard in the room, he waited at the door for a moment.A faint white air rose from the plate of freshly fried peanuts.

The three chess games came to an end immediately, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the old secretary Zhang Weimin.His pupils dilated, staring at the chessboard tightly.Sitting upright, his back is like a long pine tree facing the sky.The skinny hands were clenched together, panting heavily.

"You won." After being stunned for a while, Secretary Zhang finally spit out these three words slowly.

"Admit it." Xiao Yi still said the same words, and there was still no pride on his face that belonged to the victor.

The old secretary was still staring closely at the flag on the table, and took a long breath.Then, he suddenly pushed the pieces on the chessboard to the ground with all his strength.

Hush, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh.

Just when Xiao Yi was puzzled for a while, the old secretary suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly.Tears welled up in those skinny eye sockets.

"Today, you have made me broaden my horizons." After a while, the old secretary stopped the smile on his face, looked at Xiao Yi and said in a slow voice: "Your vigor really gave me a lot of insight. From the beginning In the beginning, you are all offensive and have no defense at all. To be honest, I didn't like your style of chess at first. After all, I have always advocated both offensive and defensive. But after three rounds, you made me admire Yes. Your vigor and indomitable chess style have completely conquered me."

Xiao Yi smiled lightly and said: "The best defense is offense, so I always only attack but not defend."

This is the idea that Xiao Yi's unscrupulous teacher told him from the first day.Now, Xiao Yi had already planted this concept in his heart.Whether it's playing chess, writing, or fighting, Xiao Yi has always adhered to this point of view.Just three rounds ago, Xiao Yi used great means and great momentum, only attacking but not defending, and overwhelmed the old secretary in all aspects.

"I have already realized the true meaning of your point." The old secretary Zhang Weimin nodded solemnly, and continued: "If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening. So, I just overturned the chessboard. The idea of ​​negation in all aspects. Very good, you let me see another level, another style of chess. I appreciate your youth, your vigor, your sharpness, and your edges and corners."

"Thank you, old secretary, for your compliment." Xiao Yi didn't feel pampered in the slightest because of the old secretary's compliment.

The old secretary looked at Xiao Yi's calm look, and the joy in his heart became even stronger.He stared at Xiao Yi for a while, and then said word by word: "Your character is really not suitable for politics and an official. An official needs a heart that is all-round. And you are too sharp, suitable for you. For business."

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "To tell the truth from the old secretary, I have exactly that intention."

"Okay." The old secretary nodded again and again: "If I were 30 years younger, I would definitely accompany you to return to the sea for business. It's just that time doesn't wait for me, I'm already old. Alas, it's a pity..."

"It's okay." Xiao Yi smiled lightly, and comforted the old secretary: "If the old secretary really appreciates me, then you can bet and invest in me. I will contribute, and the old secretary will contribute."

Xiao Yi is not stupid, at this moment, taking advantage of this topic, he can just drag the old secretary Zhang Weimin into trouble.If you really pull down an old secretary to join, then no matter what you do in the future, you will not worry about the business not being prosperous.

The old secretary saw through Xiao Yi's petty thinking at a glance, smiled loudly and said: "You are young, but you have a good plan. In the city center, I had a small shop in the early years, and I will give it to you as a copy. However, that's all. After you make money, I don't want to do anything, I just need you to come and play chess and write with me when you have time."

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up, without the slightest sense of depression, he said directly: "Then thank you, old secretary."

Just at this moment, Zhao Xing, who was waiting outside the door, heard the sound of no pawns inside.Outside the door, he asked in a low voice: "The appetizers are all ready, can I bring them in now?"

"Bring it in, this will be exactly two cups."

The voice of the old secretary, this will be extraordinarily loud, revealing a trace of excitement and joy.It's like finding a good piece of calligraphy, which makes me feel comfortable and happy from the bottom of my heart.

Immediately, Zhao Xing brought in the appetizers one after another, and brought a bottle of good Red Star Erguotou.

The appetizers are not rich, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of pickled radish, and a plate of sliced ​​sausages.It looks a little crude.However, the old secretary and Xiao Yi were extremely happy with these few appetizers.Occasionally, they also clinked wine glasses, which was quite lively.

On the way, the old secretary enthusiastically asked Zhao Xing to re-fry two plates of peanuts and bring them up.The two talked about chess, calligraphy, and the way of being an official and a businessman.It's like two friends who haven't seen each other for many years, talking at night by candlelight, drinking and having fun.

"Xiao Yi, I'm a little older than you, how about we become sworn brothers?" The last glass of wine was put down, the old secretary Zhang Weimin seemed to have a bit of alcohol, and he pulled Xiao Yi's sleeve extremely said openly.

"How did this happen?" Xiao Yi looked terrified, didn't this mess up his seniority?

"What can't be done?" The old secretary Zhang Weimin immediately looked slightly angry, raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Look at your writing, whatever you want, eclectic. Why are you so pedantic at this time?"

Xiao Yi was taken aback, not knowing what to do for a moment.Xiao Yi really didn't dare to agree with an old city official who everyone admired and who was old enough to be his grandfather.

The old secretary, Zhang Weimin, yelled impatiently: "That's the decision. I'm a few years older than you, and you can call me big brother in the future. I have the final say on this matter."

Holding up the pair of chopsticks, Xiao Yi froze in the air stiffly.Hearing that the old secretary had settled the relationship with each other with one hand, it really felt a little scary.

Zhao Xing, who was standing at the door waiting for the old secretary's order, would stare at the excited old secretary in the room.Zhao Xing has followed the old secretary for so many years, but he has never seen the old secretary so excited.What made him even more incomprehensible was that the respected old secretary actually called such a young Xiao Yi brother and brother.

Thinking about it, Zhao Xing felt dizzy.The empty plate in his hand finally fell to the ground with a bang, and fragments flew all over the ground.

If people in Jiang Hai's political circles knew that the old secretary and Xiao Yi were called brothers, they would definitely shout that God was unfair.How many young talents have prepared all kinds of rich and precious gifts, and they come to the old secretary just to meet him once.Now, Xiao Yi, who is empty-handed, has not prepared any gifts, yet he has been favored by the old secretary.

He also received a great honor and became brothers with the old secretary.Once this kind of thing is publicized, Jiang Hai's pink eye disease will definitely spread in large numbers.

However, the chance between people is just such a coincidence.Xiao Yi, who had no affectation at all, was honored to visit the old secretary Zhang Weimin for the first time.

"It's late at night, brother, you should go back first. I have an old problem of high blood pressure, so I can't drink anymore." The old secretary looked at Xiao Yi now, and said with a hint of drunkenness.

Xiao Yi looked at the old secretary looking at him with a face full of glory, summoned up his courage, and began to adapt to the relationship between the two: "Brother, the post from God I wrote to you last time, the big brother of the prescription Have you tried it? It is indeed a good cure for high blood pressure, and taking it for a long time will definitely help your body."

The old secretary, Zhang Weimin, was stunned for a moment, and asked: "The prescription is really useful? Brother, do you know medicine?"

The old secretary has gradually lost hope of diet therapy for his old ailments.Seeing the God's post written by Xiao Yi, I was already amazed by the flamboyant words.As for the prescription, the old secretary really hasn't examined it carefully.Now, after hearing Xiao Yi mention it, I just remembered that it was a prescription.

Xiao Yi had always been confident in his medical skills, so he nodded immediately and said: "I do know medicine, and I have more experience and confidence than writing. You can safely try that prescription, brother."

The old secretary has already recognized the identity of this brother from the bottom of his heart. Regarding his brother, the old secretary is a little skeptical: "Then I will try it in two days, and let me personally verify my brother's medical skills. Is it really as good as calligraphy?" as miraculous?"
